Continuing a Legacy of Giving

For more than 160 years, the words In Omnibus Caritas — in all things charity — have inspired the work of the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine. It was for this purpose that they opened the doors of Mercy Hospital in 1908 to care for the people of Canton, Ohio, and surrounding communities, regardless of ability to pay. With the help of many devoted community members — together with hospital employees, staff and administration — we are able to continue the legacy of giving started by the Sisters of Charity.

Current Foundation Campaigns

Today the Mercy Development Foundation helps to continue their work through the following campaigns:

2018 Campaign of Caring
Mercy Development Foundation is holding its 2018 Campaign of Caring, our annual employee drive, which supports uncompensated care and community benefit, capital project development, and mission-based programs. In 2017, Mercy provided over $22.7 million in community benefit.

Memorials, Tributes & Honor a Caregiver
Generous donations to Mercy Medical Center, Mercy Hospice or Mercy Home Care are a beautiful way to celebrate a life, to remember a loved one or to honor a caregiver who met the needs of a patient and his or her family members in a special way.
